In reply to the discussion: Supreme Court denies request to stop Texas 6-week abortion ban, John Roberts and liberals dissenting [View all]Jon King
(1,910 posts)17. The law specifically gives anyone standing.
Thats the entire crux of the law, it gives any private citizen standing.
But I do want to see a case filed for a different reason...to see what the court does in regards to medical records. Will the women remain anonymous? And just her records released to the court without her identity? Can the doctor's defense team claim doctor-patient confidentiality. Can the women protect her records? Can the doctor demand the court to release her identity so he can call her as a defense witness, then when the court refuses, the doctor claim he could not defend his case without her identity being released?
So many hundreds of questions about how this can be enforced.
